[0002] As a device connecting networks of different voltage levels, a power transformer is an extremely important component in the power system and is widely used in various aspects such as power generation, power transmission, and power distribution in the power system. With the increase in the capacity of the transformer, the generated loss increases accordingly, and the heat generated cannot meet the cooling requirements by the heat radiation of the radiator of the transformer itself. Therefore, air-cooled transformers appear, that is, the air convection of the fin radiator of the transformer is increased by a fan to improve the cooling effect.
[0003] However, the fan will also generate a large amount of heat during long-term operation, resulting in the air flow agitated by the fan becoming hot air, which will reduce the cooling efficiency of the transformer and cause a certain amount of energy waste. Content of the Utility Model

Driven by the air flow, the air outside the box body enters the box body through the air inlet and cools the air flow, improving the cooling efficiency of the transformer.
[0006] As an optimization, the air inlet opens towards the extending direction of the air duct, and the air inlet is communicated with the output end of the blowing device through a duct, and the cross-sectional area of the air inlet is respectively smaller than the cross-sectional area of the duct and the cross-sectional area of the air duct; the air flow is pressurized through the duct and the air inlet to increase the air flow velocity, increase the pressure difference inside and outside the box body, accelerate the air replacement speed inside the box body, and improve the cooling efficiency of the transformer.
[0007] As an optimization, heat dissipation fins extending along the extending direction of the air duct are fixedly arranged on the transformer; the heat dissipation fins are used to increase the heat dissipation efficiency of the transformer and improve the cooling efficiency of the transformer.
[0008] As an optimization, a filtering device A is arranged at the input end of the air blowing device, and the edge of the filtering device A is attached to the inner wall of the input end of the air blowing device; the filtering device A is used to remove impurities such as dust in the air to avoid affecting the cooling efficiency of the transformer.

The temperature of the air flow decreases and the cooling of the transformer 2 is accelerated; the air flow that has completed cooling flows out through the air outlet 102.

[0020] The heat generated by the transformer 2 is conducted to the heat dissipation fins 7, and the air flow flows in the air duct 3 and takes away the heat on the heat dissipation fins 7.
